Self-watering pot insert with wick
A self-watering insert sits inside a standard pot and lets a wick draw water up from a reservoir, so plants stay hydrated during a week away. The insert is a 140 mm perforated platform with a 30 mm skirt that rests on the pot base, a 12 mm wick tube in the center, a 15 mm fill spout at the edge and drainage slots around the platform. Print it upside down for a support-free print in PETG, which does not degrade when constantly wet.
Instead of hunting for an insert that happens to fit your pot, give SpeakCAD the inner diameter and depth and the platform is sized to sit at the right level. Ask for a water-level indicator slot or a taller reservoir in a follow-up message. Preview at no cost in your browser.
Design a self-watering insert for a pot with 142 mm inner diameter: a 140 mm platform 2 mm thick with 3 x 20 mm drainage slots, a 30 mm support skirt, a central 12 mm wick tube 40 mm tall, and a 15 mm fill spout rising 45 mm.
